After yesterday's grueling 2-hour match, Dementieva will have to face yet another tough opponent by the name of Meghann Shaughnessy.

Meghann Shaughnessy is currently ranked at No. 56. She's basically a baseline player. Dementieva and Shaughnessy met 3 times previously and Elena has the upper hand leading 2-1. The last time day met was at the 2nd round of Wimbledon 2006 where Elena made a dramatic comeback to win 5-7 6-3 7-5. I remember that match pretty well because I watched it live on TV and I was like "Oh my God! I hope Elena wins!". It was a very tough match.

After yesterday's match, I'm sure Elena is pretty tired by now. But she is a very good athlete so I hope that there's still enough fuel in her to get to the next round. She served 11 double faults last night and her 2nd serve was pretty bad so I hope that changes a bit today. I wanna see her hungry for a win and prove that she still got what it takes to be Top 10.
